Ukiyo-e Palette 27
Muted Tawny

Tawny Warm orange-brown - a traditional term for the color of tanned leather or lion fur.
Palette Analysis
Mid-key values give Ukiyo-e its characteristic quietness - nothing blazes, nothing disappears. The dominant temperature is warm, with earth tones and fire-hues setting the emotional key. Muted throughout, the palette achieves its effects through value and temperature rather than chromatic force. #A0473A delivers the chromatic peak at only 4.7% - a small shot of colour with outsized visual impact. The full value range is 60 units: broad enough to build convincing three-dimensional form.
Example use cases
- exhibition design
- foundation branding
